Here is the Manual:

 

Service Manual

 

Two SODIMM memory module slots (select models only) DDR3L-1600 MHz dual channel support

 

You have the i3 processor so yours is 2 slots. The stated maximum is 12 gigs, i.e. a 4 gig and an 8 gig but experience has shown it can accept  2 x 8 gig modules for 16 gigs total. 

 

Memory access is very tricky and requires motherboard removal.

 

See p. 116

 

4 GB memory module 691740-005
